Researchers in development

 

The VNOP & CAS Research Days are two interesting and enjoyable days for researchers within the field of developmental psychology or pedagogics.
More about our Research Days →

“Interesting for all researchers within the field of developmental psychology and pedagogics.”

Working as a researcher in the field of developmental psychology or pedagogics? Then you definitely have to register for the VNOP-CAS Research Days! Every year, the Research Days are organized by members of VNOP and CAS. The days provide a unique opportunity for young researchers to develop themselves and to present their work. One day is set up especially for PhD candidates and postdoc researchers. They are welcome to join an interesting and in-depth workshop and learn more about how to develop as a researcher. The other day, a conference is organized for all researchers within the field of developmental psychology or pedagogics. Young researchers (PhD candidates and postdoc researchers) will present their latest work.

Note! You do not have to be a member of VNOP or CAS to join the Research Days. All researchers are welcome!

Keynote VNOP-CAS Research Days 2026

June 19, 2026

Keynote Speaker Dr. Margot Peeters: Making Research Work: Implementing Evidence-Informed Practices in Youth Development Settings

On average, it takes 17 years for a scientific finding to find its way into practice. This takes far too long, especially when it comes to youth development—an area where trends and societal influences change rapidly. How can we accelerate this process, and how can we ensure that our research has a faster impact in practice? Associate professor Margot Peeters will reflect on these questions and evaluate implementation frameworks and practical applications that could facilitate this acceleration. 

Registration will open in September. Stay tuned for further updates!
